Chapter 135 Does He Get Injured Often
Collin and Linsey quickly reached the hospital, where Dominic arrived hurriedly.
“Collin, you’re unbelievable!” Dominic exclaimed. “I just finished surgery and was about to relax, and you couldn’t wait to drag me here.”
Collin glanced at Dominic and said calmly, “Linsey is injured. Please examine her.”
Dominic was taken aback and immediately turned his attention to Linsey. “What happened this time?” he asked.
Linsey felt a bit awkward for some reason. “Uh… it’s just a sprain, nothing serious,” she replied.
Dominic crouched down in front of her, his gaze fixed on her swollen ankle. He shook his head and gave a low whistle.
“Collin, weren’t you the one who used to avoid doctors and treat your own injuries? Now you can’t even handle something
this minor? You had to call me in for this?” Dominic questioned.
Linsey blinked in surprise and instinctively asked, “Does he get injured often?”
“Dominic,” Collin said, his brows furrowed in a silent warning.
Realizing he had revealed too much, Dominic quickly cleared his throat and changed the subject. “Forget what I said,” he
deflected. “It looks serious. Let’s get an X–ray done first.”
“But…” She wanted to ask more, but…
Seeing Collin’s stern expression, she decided against it and nodded obediently.
Luckily, Linsey’s injury wasn’t serious.
After a brief examination, Dominic concluded, “Don’t worry it’s nothing too severe. Just apply the medication on time, and
try to rest more for the next couple of days.”
Linsey sighed in relief. She knew it wasn’t a big deal.
“Thank you, Dr. Larson,” Linsey said softly.
Dominic handed the spray medication to Collin. “She’s yours to look after,” he said. “I’ll head out now.”
With that, Dominic turned and departed, quietly closing the hospital room door behind him. He further instructed the hospital staff to refrain from unnecessary interruptions.
After all, they were a newly married couple.
A bit of privacy would undoubtedly benefit their budding relationship.
Once Dominic had departed, Collin maneuvered his wheelchair closer to Linsey.

Chapter 135 Does He Get Injured Often
Without a word, he bent down, gently lifted her injured foot, and carefully placed it on his lap.
Collin firmly but gently held her leg in place and said in a low, commanding tone, “Hold still.”
Linsey offered a strained smile and replied, “No, not at all.”
Collin offered no response. He continued to administer the medication with meticulous attention.
As the spray penetrated her injured tissue, the pain intensified.
Finally, Linsey’s composure faltered, and she trembled slightly as she whispered, “Collin, perhaps a touch more gently?”
As he heard the pain in her voice, Collin’s expression softened momentarily.
The mere thought of Linsey being harmed again ignited a fierce surge of frustration within Collin.
He inhaled deeply, suppressing the urge to unleash his anger, and gentled his touch as much as he could. Once he finished tending to her injury, he carefully placed her foot back on the floor.
With her injury tended to, they both returned to the Vista Villa.
Linsey settled onto the bed, wanting to speak to Collin, but he preempted her.
“Rest up. I have some business to handle,” he said.
With that, Collin wheeled himself out of the room, worried that if he remained any longer, his barely contained fury might
scare Linsey.
